Hunter reaches to the shower caddy that holds all the lotions and soaps that he uses, to find a small bottle of shampoo that he bought a few months ago. A small sign of his acknowledgement that Jim spends some of his time at the apartment.

And pours just a little in his hand, to help massage it through Jim's hair, and help lift more of the grime and gunk from the other man.

There is only one place that Jim would consider enough of a Nightmare to be reacting this bad. Tarsus IV. And he leans forward just a little, to show Jim that he is still there. No matter what needs to be said.

And he knows that he can't comfort Jim right now. Because trying to tell Jim that he did eat might cause the wrong reaction. It might surface a memory that Jim really doesn't need.

Because even though Hunter doesn't know the whole story, he has seen enough of the pieces of what happened to connect the dots. The way Jim reacted during the cannibalism scene when they watched Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man's Chest. Jim's reactions when he was forced to relive his nightmares, due to Austin's magic. He knows, without being told.

"Fuck... Jim. I'm sorry you had to live through that again."
